British Queen Victoria Diamond Jubilee Medal (1897) Ribbon – New Old Stock
An unused New Old Stock (NOS) medal ribbon representing the Queen Victoria Diamond Jubilee Medal of 1897, a British royal commemorative decoration celebrating the sixtieth anniversary of Queen Victoria's accession to the throne.
Historical Background
Queen Victoria ascended the British throne on June 20, 1837. By 1897, she had reigned for sixty years, making her Diamond Jubilee one of the most significant royal celebrations of the Victorian era.
The Diamond Jubilee celebrations culminated in a grand procession through London on June 22, 1897, attended by representatives of the British Empire, foreign dignitaries, and military contingents.
The event celebrated Victoria's long reign and the international reach of the British Empire during the late nineteenth century.
Why It Was Awarded
